Description

In this International Dyslexia Association Perspectives article, Dr. Andrew Biemiller summarizes the importance of teaching vocabulary, as well as key principles for vocabulary instruction from early childhood to intermediate/senior grades. He summarizes considerations for selecting words to teach explicitly, and how words and instruction shift as students’ vocabulary skills grow and develop over time.

Vocabulary is a key component of Overall Expectation B2. Across grades, students demonstrate an understanding of words and acquire and use vocabulary in various contexts. This resource supports educators in determining which vocabulary words should be the focus of explicit instruction.
